For the milky mix:

We boil 2lts of fresh milk, adding a spoonful of butter and half a cup of sugar.

When it starts boiling we add 2 cups of semolina.

After a couple of minutes we turn off the heat and add to the mix 4 eggs and vanilla (stirring constantly).

For the pie:

We add 4 cups of flour in a baking pan and add some salt and vinegar.

Then, we start kneading while adding water and olive oil. We mash our dough in order for it to be soft and let it rest for a while.

Mixing them together

Next we take the dough and lay it out in a baking pan. We place the milky mix and start rolling the dough.

Finally we shape the dough into a spiral, carefully and place it in the pan, frying the pie to olive oil for about 5 minutes per side (medium heat).

When ready, we place the milk spiral pie on a platter, add vanilla ice cream and the homemade syrup of the customer’s choice!
